Fles gedeeld door Tomhendriksen. Diep donkerbruin tot zwart bier met matig schuim dat als een film blijft liggen. Aroma van koffie en gebrand hout. Smaak van salmiak en drop maar ook koffie en chocolade komen naar voren. Zacht in de mond. Nasmaak van salmiak, vanille en koffie.

Fles gedeeld met Inoven, het is een pikzwart bier met een volle bruinige schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van gebrande mout, hout, rozijnen en whisky. De smaak is vol, gebrande koffie, drop en whisky achtig.

500ml bottle bought as part of a delivery from KWM Wines, Kilkeel. Dark brown, almost black with a ring of tan head. Light chocolatey aroma, some whisky and a little touch of liquorice. Sweet taste with a sourish whiskey kickback. More chocolate and salted caramel notes. Smooth yet boozy finish. Thick body, low carbonation. Understated but intensely nice.
